Clark University Personal Finance Class Visits Federal Reserve Bank of Boston for Practical Learning
Students enrolled in Professor Fei Fang’s Personal Finance class at Clark University’s School of Business recently took a field trip to the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. The visit was designed to provide students with practical, real-world applications of the foundational financial principles they are learning in the course. The Personal Finance curriculum covers a range of topics essential for informed financial decision-making and developing sustainable financial habits. These topics include the time value of money, saving strategies, credit management, loans, investment fundamentals, evaluating job offers, long-term financial planning, and the use of AI-based tools to support personal financial decisions. The field trip offered students an opportunity to gain insights into the operations and functions of a major financial institution, connecting their classroom learning with the broader financial ecosystem.
